Be part of something exceptional from the very beginning
At Blaise Veterinary Referral Centre, we're offering an incredible opportunity for a Registered Veterinary Nurse with a passion for diagnostic imaging to join our new multidisciplinary team on a 12 month maternity cover contract. This is your chance to be part of the foundation of something truly special, where excellence in patient care and sustainability come together under one roof.

Building the foundations of a sustainable career

Situated in Longbridge, Birmingham, Blaise will be one of the largest multidisciplinary referral hospitals in the UK, with the capacity to treat up to 10,000 pets per year.

Sustainability has been a key priority, with several green and wellbeing initiatives included as part of our Positive Pawprint strategy. At over 36,000 sq ft, the hospital will offer specialist-led, multi-discipline veterinary referrals and a 24-hour emergency care service for pet owners across the Midlands. Conveniently located just off the A38, Blaise is part of the West Longbridge regeneration project.

Designed with collaboration in mind, our open plan layout and state-of-the-art facilities ensure a collegiate, positive, and supportive working culture.
